WILLIAM L. LIG-ETY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y., ASSIGNOR TO ROSALIE H. LIGE TY, 0F
BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
CIGAR AND PROCESS OF MAKING SAME.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented June i, 1915.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, WILLIAM L. LIonrY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Cigars and Processes of Main ing Same, of which the following is a speciiica tion.
This invention relates to cigars and the process of making same.
Hitherto, in order to properly secure the wrapper to the filler or bunch, the cigar maker has found it necessary to employ a paste. In handling the paste with the fingers, the latter become so sticky that the delicate wrapper leaf is liable to be torn. To obviate such danger, the cigar maker invariably moistens his fingers with saliva, and with the fingers thus moistened, he finishesoif the end of the cigar by turning the same between the moistened fingers. Such procedure results in a cigar which is obviously unsanitary and may breed disease.
Dne of the objects of this invention is, therefore, to provide acigar the wrapper of which is permanently secured about the filler or bunch without the use of a paste, so that there will be no necessity for the cigar maker to moisten his fingers.
A further object is to provide a cigar which is ornamental in appearance and which may be manufactured at no greater cost than the ordinary cigar.
Further objects and advantages will more fully appear from the following detailed description and the features of novelty will be particularly pointed out in the claims.
In the drawings. Figure 1 is a longitudinal view f one form of my novel cigar. Fig, 2 is another form. Fig. 3' illustrates one step in the process of winding thewrapper about the filler. Fig. 4 shows the wrapper entirely wound about the filler with a tail piece ready for twisting. Fig. 5 is a detail fragmental view of the tail piece twisted into a thin strand which is subscouently wound about the end of the cigar. Fig. 6 is a plan view of the wrapper as it is cut out of the tobacco leaf preparatory to winding the same about the filler.
Referring particularly to the drawings, the butt end of the filler or bunch 1 is first placed upon the narrow portion 2 of the wrapper 3 in the usual manner. The
cigar is then rolled up in the manner shown in Fig. 3, care being taken that a vein or rib at in the "rapper extend beyond the end 5 of the tiller. Prior to completely rolling up the wra per about the filler as shown in Fig. I, a portion 5 adjacent the end 6 of the wrapper is folded over the leaf (Fig. 3). The cigar is then rolled further to tale the form shown in Fig. 4-, so that a tail 7 extends from the end thereof. The tail is then grasped between the fingers and twisted into a thin strand 8, as shown in Fig. 6, after which the strand is coiled about the end of the cigar in several contiguous parallel convolutions, as shown in Fig. 1, or in spaced convolutions as shown in Fig. 2, the end of the strand being tucked beneath the next adjacent convolution. In this manner, the strand is securely held about the cigar, so that the wrapper can not unwind or loosen. When it is desired to smoke the cigar, all that is necessary is to tear oif the coil, which leaves the cigar in the shape of the ordinary cigar. The w apper adheres well to the tip of the cigar even after the coil is torn off, since it has become molded to the shape of the filler by the strand having been tightly coiled thereabout.
In twisting the tail 7 to form the strand 8, the same, due to the delicate structure of the wrapper, would ordinarily tear at the end of the filler; and it is to obviate such contingency that care is taken to include a vein or rib 4 in the portion of the wrapper forming the tail so as to serve as a nucleus or reinforcing means therefor, so that the strand could safely be formed without danger of its tearing. Further strength is imparted to the tail 7 by the overturned portion 5 which also eliminates the raw edges at that point.
It will be noted that no incision is made in the wrapper adjacent the point of the cigar, as has hitherto been done in the usual method of making cigars. Thus, the tail piece is not weakened at its base and will not give way under ordinary conditions of handlin It will thus be seen that I have provided a cigar which does not require the use of paste in winding the Wrapper about the filler, so that there is no reason for the cigar maker moistening his fingers, and the resultant product is, therefore, sanitary. The
cigar is also ornamental in appearance. Furthermore, the coil formed about the end of thecigar forms a-protective resilient reinforce which cushions the end of the cigar and preserves it from injury through impact occurring in shipment and handling.
Having thus" described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent:
1. A cigar comprising a body portion and an exterior tobacco wrapper wrapped about the body portion, having a portion extending beyond the end of the body portion forming a strand coiled about the end of the cigar as a core in a plurality of convolutions, whereby the end of the wrapper is retained in position and protectively relnforced.
2. A cigar comprising a body portion and an exterior tobacco wrapper wrapped about the body portion, having a portion extending beyond the end of the body portion forming a strand coiled about the end of the cigar as'a core in a plurality of convolutions, the, end of said strand being tucked underneath the adjacent convolution, whereby the end of the wrapper is retained in position and protectively reinforced.
3. A cigar comprising a body portion and an exterior tobacco wrapper wrapped about the body portion, having a portion extending beyond the end of the body portion forming a strand coiled about the end of the cigar as a core in a plurality of contiguous convolutions, the end of said strand beingtucked underneath the adjacent con volution, whereby the end of the wrapper is retained in position and protectively reinforced.
4. A cigar comprising a body portion and an exterior tobacco wrapper wrapped about the bolt portion, said wrapper having a portion extending beyond the body portion in" cluding a strengthening vein, and forming a strand coiled about the end of the cigar as a core in a plurality of convolut-ions, Where by the end of the wrapper is retained in p0 sition and protectively reinforced. I
5. The method of making a cigar consist ing in winding a tobacco leaf about the body portion so as to leave a portion projecting beyond the end of the body portion,
twisting the projecting portion into a Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents eachf by addressing the Washington, D. 0.
strand, winding said strand about the end of the cigar as a core in a plurality of con-V volutions and securing the end of the strand in place upon the body of the cigar.
6. The method of making a cigar consisting in winding a tobacco leaf about the body portion so as to leave a portion projecting beyond the end of the body portion, lapping over the edge of said projecting portion, twisting the latter into a thin strand, winding said strand about the cigar as a core in a plurality of convolutions and securing the end of the strand in place upon the body of the cigar.
7. The method of making a cigar consisting in winding the tobacco wrapper about the body portion so as to leave a portion projecting beyond the end ofthe body portion and a vein extending across the projecting portion, twisting said portion into a thin strand, winding the strand about the end of the cigar in a plurality of convolutions, and tucking the end of the strand under one of the convolutions.
8. The method of making a cigar consisting in winding the tobacco wrapper about the body portion so as to leave a portion projecting beyond the end of the body por tion, said projecting portion containing a vein, lapping over a portion adjacent the end'of said projectingportion, twisting the latter into a thin strand, winding said strand about the cigar in a plurality of con' volutions, and tucking the end of said strand under one ofthe convolutionsr 9. The method of making a cigar consisting in winding the wrapping about the fillerso as to leave a portion projecting beyond the end of the filler and a vein in the projecting portion extending substantially parallel to the long axis of thecigar, twisting said portion into a thin strand, winding the strand about the end of the cigaras a core in a plurality of convolutions, and tucking the end of the strand under one of the convolutions.
